The DStv Explora Ultra puts DStv, Showmax, Netflix and Box Office on one box, records in 4K and supports Dolby Atmos, with wireless connectivity included.
In a flat the internet side is normally the easy half and the dish feed is not. Where the building runs a communal dish we check what the outlet in your unit can actually deliver before you commit to the decoder, because a thin feed shows itself on 4K recordings before anything else.
Premium subscribers also get access to Showmax streaming and live SuperSport coverage.

The DStv Explora records, pauses live TV and keeps Catch Up on hand, which is what most people are after without paying for the Ultra.
We install it in flats, complexes and houses right across town, connect it to your own dish or to the building feed, and finish the activation. If you are renting, we keep the installation tidy and reversible so that it is not an argument with the landlord when your lease ends.
DStv Extra View adds a second decoder to one subscription so two TVs can watch different things. In a shared house, or a family home with two lounges, it usually works out cheaper than a second account.
The pair have to be joined by a heartbeat cable, which means they need a workable route between them. We settle that on site, lay and conceal the cable, then pair the units and complete the activation.


Dish work in Potchefstroom splits into two quite different jobs. On a freestanding house in Grimbeekpark or Dassierand it is the familiar routine: survey, mount, align, and seal the connectors against summer rain.
In a complex it is another conversation. Some buildings run a communal dish and will only allow the existing outlet in your unit; others let you fit your own on a balcony or a section of roof, subject to the body corporate. We establish which you are dealing with before quoting, rather than arriving and finding out. Alignment work starts at R450.
Extra TV points are governed by what the building permits. In a house we take the coaxial through the roof and drop it inside a wall; in a flat there is frequently no cavity to use, so it goes into trunking chosen to match the skirting.
Either way, the run finishes at a wall plate with the connector made off properly, and we test the signal at the new outlet before we go.


Small rooms and shared walls change what is worth doing. In a flat, a soundbar with a compact subwoofer generally beats a five-speaker rig you can never turn up loud enough to justify.
We will say as much rather than sell you the bigger option. Where a full surround system does suit the space, we position the speakers properly, hide the cable runs and calibrate the levels once it is installed.
Mounting a TV in a rented flat calls for a light touch: fixings suited to the wall, the fewest sensible holes, and a bracket that comes off cleanly at the end of a lease.
In houses the usual rules apply. We check the wall construction before drilling, fix into something structural, put the screen at a comfortable height for the room, and tuck the cables away out of sight.


The faults we see most are smartcard read errors, HDMI outputs that have stopped passing a picture, and decoders that will not get past the boot screen.
Diagnosis comes first. In a communal-dish building especially, something presenting as a dead decoder is often the outlet or the splitter feeding it, and swapping the box would have fixed nothing. Every repair we do is backed for six months, and the R550 call-out buys you the visit plus a proper diagnosis whether or not you proceed.
